    Rear wall very wet

    Reason I ask about the eternabond. I am thinking that an option is to simply work my way around the roof. Remove the top rear trim resecure it with new putty and new caulking; do each side the same; then the front. I've got to believe at this point my problem is actually either the top rear trim...

    Rear wall very wet

    For now, until I can either solve or have inspected, my wife and I covered with a 40x20 tarp from harbor freight. We secured it with poly rope "sewing" the rope is how my wife described it working under the belly of the northtrail from front to rear like stiching a tent. Just in time, it stormed...

    Rear wall very wet

    Is there a web site for guidance on replacing caulk with eternabond? For doing at least the roof edges sides and front and rear with eternabond?

    Rear wall very wet

    I thought I had the leak cured with diligent caulking. this is because I let a hose run on each rear roof corner for a long time and found no leaking at lower rear external wall behind the bumper. I had removed the plastic that covers the bottom of the rear wall and felt all along the width. All...

    living/dining slide leaks when closed

    Hi friends. Here is what I am finding on our 2010 32QBSS tt. When I open the slide out after a rain there is water on top of the slideout. There is no apparent water issue inside. However I do see that the exterior bottom board is obviously getting wet. I am wondering if I need to adjust...

    Main Slide leaks water into carpet when pulling on wet roads

    We had this same exact issue the first time we towed our 32QBSS travel trailer. I called Heartland while on road and didn't get a lot of satisfaction. I did an emergency "fix" which I'd read about online. I stuffed some of those 4 ft long pool tubes (look like the 3' long split insulation...

    Rear wall very wet

    It is possible that the tech rep said that the manual clearly says it is the owner's obligation to inspect every three months and recaulk where needed. he was clear though that they would do nothing, absolutely nothing about a 2010 with a damaged rear wall, that leaking was totally the owner's...

    Rear wall very wet

    :confused: I have simply (wrongly???) been caulking with dicor OVER the older (original) caulk, except where it is obviously easily scraped away. I never thought of trying to remove old caulk from roof accessories (plumbing vents, skylight, vent covers, antenna, refrigerator vent, etc.). I...

    Rear wall very wet

    Friends, we had a significant (awesome) hail storm on July 1. Tennis ball size hail. Hail lasted 30min. Rained hard much longer. Been raining hard lately, downpours. Decided it was time to look closely at roof to see what hail did. A few pock marks but nothing outrageous. Then, I started...

    peeling rear bumper 2010 32QBSS

    Dear heartland owners, doing a walk around today I discovered looseness and peeling of the "coating" or "film" on the rear fiberglass "bumper area" of our 32QBSS. What is this coating? And what might cause this? Ours is a 2010 "Bumper" may not be the correct term. This is the large lowest body...

    bottom sweep / seal leaks in rain

    Does anyone know if there is a sight that shows the seals on the bottom of the slide. Again, my sweeper seal does not touch the bottom. And it looks like if the slide is adjusted down enough for the seal to touch then side molding and decals will be out of line. I looked and there is not also a...
